Expert Solution
Introduction

As per the question we will only solve the subparts (2), (3), (4)

 

(2) In this problem, we are given the height and walking speed of a person who is walking towards a street light, and we are asked to find the rate of change of the length of their shadow when they are a certain distance away from the base of the pole that supports the light.

 

(3) This problem involves revenue and cost functions for a daily production process, and we are asked to find the rate of change of profit with respect to time when the production level and the rate of change of production are both given.

 

(4) As per the question, two people are walking at the same speed along different legs of a right triangle-shaped piece of land, and we are given the rate of change of the area of the land. We are asked to find the rate at which the people are moving when they are a certain distance away from the right angle of the triangle.
